reblog if u were on tumblr before yahoo bought it
IT’S LITERALLY BEEN LIKE A DAY AND WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TRYING TO ACHIEVE WITH THIS POST
only a true tumblrite would understand. you just outed yourself as a yahooligan
ah nuts I didn't mean it in that way, sorry. the people that got banned in the dangan ronpa thread certainly walked right into it and i can hardly blame them seeing how tumblr fandom can be. ive had an overall problem with sa's attitude and stuff before i got into dr and i just went about it in a much more scathing attitude than probably needed :(
I mean, all’s forgiven but while a lot of people on tumblr are upset with SA, the feeling is mutual with some of the folks on SA aswell. The SA DR threads are relatively huge now since they managed to attract a lot of outside popularity just from one or two threads and with couple hundred posts a day, it’s really only about cleaning them up for the sake of the Let’s Play and the readers. That ban in particular is currently all the rage in the PYF Ban/Probation thread on SA too, as members and frequent LP subforum goers are currently concerned about the nature of some tumblr users posing in these threads as one goon put it: “What it is, is an irresistible siren call that continually lures in people we don’t want anywhere near this forum. It’s a flame to the creepy-otaku-moths. A tumblr-motel.”
SomethingAwful is more concerned about SomethingAwful, it’s only natural that they want to keep their own threads in check, but with this huge influx of people from tumblr and TVTropes this is becoming hard for a lot of them. Between tumblr and SA, there really needs to be a fine line in between. It’s clear that their particular e-culture isn’t exactly compatible on a wide scale, but like you said, they really did walk into it. A lot of them just think these people are ruining the thread and some of them even suggested that it had became the worst thread in SA period. That’s really what they’re getting at, the paywall really is there for a reason. There’s even a fine print of rules in big letters that are shown before every member before they buy an account and it was really their fault that they didn’t want to read it.

are ppl surprised that somethingawful is a shithole??? if u bought an account im just gonna pray for those 10 dollars and wish they had a better life
Just because they don’t want to be invested with pyscho fanboys/girls from tumblr ruining their threads doesn’t make it a “shithole”. If it is a shithole, you’re basically trying to make it one along with the rest of this godforsaken fandom.
